It covers central topics such as trajectories of development, competition, financial deepening, financial inclusion and crisis management in the last quarter of the 20th century and the first two decades of the 21st century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A widely held misconception regarding economic and financial crises in the global South attributes the causes of the crises to the incapacity of policy makers in transforming their economies in line with the demands of investors. Either because of the exclusive institutions or policy fallacies, it is maintained; the South cannot catch up with the advanced countries of the North. This stance ignores the interdependencies not only between the countries, but also the policy dilemmas that the emerging markets confront amidst processes of financialisation and credit-led strategies of economic growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The course will rest on an interdisciplinary effort benefiting from comparative political economy, political science and development studies. It will elaborate various case studies to analyze both the day-to-day workings of global finance and the reflection of global financial conjuncture upon major emerging markets. It will help the students grasp major issues and problems confronted by the policy makers of emerging markets in an era of financialisation. While providing a meta-level discussion of development in the last decades, the course will provide a comparative and historical lens to analyze the political economic transformation in the global South.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-79414423 gb-tabs__item\" id=\"gb-tab-item-79414423\">\n\n<h4 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-0f554003 gb-headline-text\">Course Outline<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gb-text\">You can see and download the course syllabus below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-element-3120ace5\">\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/offuniversity.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/political-economy-of-the-global-south-syllabus-W19.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:813px\" aria-label=\"political-economy-of-the-global-south-syllabus-W19 g\u00f6m\u00fcs\u00fc.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-49a560ab-7444-4256-8780-865b9bce6fac\" href=\"https:\/\/offuniversity.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/political-economy-of-the-global-south-syllabus-W19.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">political-economy-of-the-global-south-syllabus-W19<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-9eb8a576\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-9eb8a576\">\n\n<div class=\"gb-element-91eca3f0\">\n<h4 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-a1a66d63 gb-headline-text\">Course Details<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-accordion\" data-transition=\"fade\">\n<div class=\"gb-accordion__item gb-accordion__item-3c7d2478 gb-accordion__item-open\">\n<div role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" class=\"gb-accordion__toggle gb-accordion__toggle-6fd97e22 gb-block-is-current\" id=\"gb-accordion-toggle-6fd97e22\">\n<p class=\"gb-text gb-text-088c1ccc\">Winter 2019-20<\/p>\n\n\n\n<span class=\"gb-accordion__toggle-icon gb-accordion__toggle-icon-1f2d83b3\"><span class=\"gb-accordion__toggle-icon-open\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" viewBox=\"0 0 256 256\"><rect width=\"256\" height=\"256\" fill=\"none\"><\/rect><polyline points=\"208 96 128 176 48 96\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" stroke-width=\"16\"><\/polyline><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"gb-accordion__toggle-icon-close\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" viewBox=\"0 0 256 256\"><rect width=\"256\" height=\"256\" fill=\"none\"><\/rect><polyline points=\"48 160 128 80 208 160\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" stroke-width=\"16\"><\/polyline><\/svg><\/span><\/span>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-accordion__content\" id=\"gb-accordion-content-9ab116f9\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-301fca63\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-9513d46c\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-3573e998\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-c695b41f\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-c695b41f\">\n\n<p style=\"font-size:14px\"><strong>Duration<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-5c494e2b\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-5c494e2b\">\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\">27.10.19 &#8211;
